Dear Hawk & Tom of 93.7 Greenville

Stop trying to control my razor.

On my way to work one morning, I was listening to 93.7 the Hawk & Tom Show. Apparently, only three out of four women shave their armpits and it's, according to Hawk and Tom, "disgusting." You want to know something really "disgusting?" Men who still think like you. #sorrynotsorry.

We live in a world of judgment; either you're too fat, skinny, ugly, or weird. So why is it that Hawk & Tom think it's okay to publically judge a women's (and call it disgusting) choice all because it's not their type? And BROADCAST IT ON THE RADIO?! They even went as far to say that people who like hairy armpits on a girl are "weird" and "not the kind of person you'd want to marry." Really guys? I guess if you have hairy armpits you'll never find love, so I'd move to a European country now if I were you.

I love the radio and radio hosts.

I love that they can connect with their audience on a personal level. However, when that host is being shallow or downright mean I lose a lot of respect for them. Just relay the information, say your opinion on the matter, and drop it. We don't need to know that if you were put into a room with two girls and one of them had hairy armpits, you'd chose the other girl.

Hair is natural, it's NOT disgusting.

Women who don't shave aren't doing that to find a man. In fact, quite the opposite. They do it to feel empowered and if they're comfortable with the way they look then why would anyone else's opinion matter? But it's not that much better on the male body. Do you think we like cuddling at night and getting your armpit hair in our face? No, it feels like we're suffocating but we don't say anything because you don't want to shave. Would we like you to? GOD YES!

For two people who reach out to around 3,500 people, they sure are closed-minded. If you can reach that many people shouldn't you be spreading awareness of other people and acceptance of those different from us? Not tearing other people apart, especially women.

But shout out to Hedi Aiken for defending women with that "5 o'clock shadow."

It really baffles me to think that people are disgusted by the hair on a women's armpits. Hair that is there for a reason, which is why we continue to grow it. Just because it's not your type doesn't mean that those women aren't still beautiful. Having hair under your armpits does NOT make you unlovable.

I shave, but for reasons of my own. However, I don't look at people who don't shave any differently than the women who do. I just hope that whoever was listening didn't throw their beliefs and choices to the side because of what Hawk & Tom had to say about hairy armpits.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
